A $2,500 reward was offered Thursday for information leading to the arrest and conviction of Eugene Palmer, the man suspected of killing his daughter-in-law before disappearing into the woods in 2012.

The reward, offered by New York State Crime Stoppers in cooperation with Haverstraw police, comes after extensive searches and false leads have left police with no arrests in the case.

Tammy Palmer, was shot to death on her father-in-law's property at 570 Willow Grove Road, Stony Point, on Sept. 24, 2012. Eugene Palmer, 74, was identified as a suspect almost immediately. He fled and has been a fugitive from the law ever since.

Haverstraw Police Lt. Martin Lund said Thursday that authorities continue to pursue the case and that the matter is considered an active homicide investigation.

"We continually follow leads, whether that means searches of the woods or whether we follow leads by other means," Lund said.

Robert Keller, director of New York Crime Stoppers, said his organization opted to offer the reward after discussing the case with Haverstraw police.

Anyone with information on the case is urged to call 1-866-313-TIPS (8477) or the Haverstraw Police Department at 845-354-1500.
